Incredible local reef that you can swim to right off the island. Friendly staff, and decent food. Italian and Thai restaurants are great. Buffet is very good for dinner, but not too many options for breakfast or lunch. Would happily come back, especially for the immense sea life.

Beautiful island. Excellent snorkelling immediately next to the hotel. Good gym and decent room. Food was okay, but not lacked a bit of variety. Expensive (and unavoidable) seaplane transfer (and watch out for the limited weight limit)

Reef most of the way around the island. Some spots the water was very calm and good for beginners. Other spots were a bit rougher. All locations had lots of fish with a large variety of species. Staff at the resort were fabulous. Babul and Ibrahim kept my villa in immaculate condition and constantly checked to see if there was anything I needed. Marx was a happy smiling server who always made a meal more pleasant Thank you to all of the staff for making this a memorable experience

Stayed 6 nights at the Machchafushi resort. An amazing experience overall. Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyed the stay and food. The room was spotless and the minibar daily replenished. Siva and Shafiq at the bar made some excellent mocktails and Yuvi explained everything to us on arrival. Credits to Nasru from house keeping . An overall great experience. Very unique given we had never stayed before on an over the water villa.

Beautiful island and good place for snorkeling, carol and fish are so close to you. I really love the Aqua bar, nice view and every evening I will stay there with a cool drink. I also see beautiful sunrise in my room. Really nice place to stay.

We had an amazing time at Centara Grand. The place is absolutely beautiful and the snorkeling straight out of the water villas is amazing. Food is super nice as well and the buffet restaurant was always varied so it never felt samey. All the staff was super friendly but we would like to thank in special Monir who would do our room and every day would leave a beautiful drawing made with sand or other natural materials on our villa floor.

Absolutely amazing, you need to stay in an overwater sunset villa w/ pool, this gets you exclusive club access basically to yourself and many other added benefits/perks and you must do all inclusive or the Grand all inclusive. Only complaint is my wife is the pickiest eater you'll meet so it took some adjustment to find meals she liked (even from the kids menu) but all restaurants were super accommodating in customizing her meal to anything she wanted and by day 2 we had her eating like a king.

We definitely enjoyed our stay at the resort. It was very peaceful and beautiful. Everyone was welcoming and polite. Well organized and neat. The things I would suggest they improve on is their restaurant options, different food options each day, for those with longer stay-a trip to explore the city, and more nightlife/activities. Overall, it was an amazing experience and will definitely be coming back.

Lovely beach and snorkelling opportunities. Friendly staff but could do with better training (not consistent). Very child friendly. Decor quite dated but kept generally clean. Food quality requires improvement for 5-star rating (first time in Maldives so cannot say if this is resort-specific but don't expect Dubai 5-star hotel food).

We loved the property, we loved how friendly, helpful and nice the staff was. They took care of our villa like it was their own home and you never see this anywhere. What I didn't like was that they need to set up long chairs for the family villas, we requested and they set it up for us but we didn't realize we could request it until the last two days.

Our holiday was nothing short of amazing! The rooms were comfortable, with AC and a mini fridge replenished daily. Housekeeping was impeccable, and stepping outside led directly to the beach. Safety was a priority, with life jackets for the whole family. Snorkelling, paddleboarding, and kayaking were available at the Best Dive kiosk, with helpful and knowledgeable staff. We took a sunset boat tour and saw hundreds of dolphins—truly unforgettable! Joe and Alex made scuba diving an excellent experience, guiding my husband step by step. Beyond the sea and infinity pool, there was plenty to do: a well-equipped gym, tennis court, and a games room with pool, darts, ping pong, PlayStation, and air hockey. The spa was the perfect place to unwind—Pin’s full-body massage was bliss! The island shop stocked essentials like sunglasses and sunscreen. To keep mosquitoes at bay, the island was sprayed daily, though bringing insect repellent is wise. Dining was spectacular, with three restaurants: The Reef (buffet), Mare Azzurro (Italian, booking needed), and Suan Buan (Thai, booking needed). The staff were outstanding—Kal ensured my son got his burger, and May, June, Vivek, Sunny, and Habib provided top-notch service. Refreshing drinks by the pool added to the experience—Siva and Ajith made dreamy caipirinhas and perfect milkshakes! The kids' club was a hit, with creative and sporty activities led by Yummi and Naba. Our time here was unforgettable, and we can't wait to return!
